My favorite part of this was the past timeline. It was the most captivating part of the story. To find out exactly what happened to them and figure out how they got there. It was the most captivating part of the story for me.

The first five chapters made it hard for me to get into. Ive never made a romance where the MC had hooked up with two other characters before getting together so i was conflicted.

Honestly i was a little disappointed. Its slow burn with lots of mutual pining which is fine but when they actually get together it didnt feel worth the wait at all. Then at the end it felt super rushed. Like it devolved and she just wanted to end it.

It sucks a bit because i think its a really creative story and I like the characters relationship. Just didnt love the execution.

The coming out was horrible. It made me cry. Although i like seeing all coming out stories because everyones is different.

This book could be very trigger. TW include, homophobia, sexual assault, child abuse.

Although this is not my favorite Erica's book of all time (And Then I Met You https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/59768269-and-then-i-met-you, read it if you haven't), it's a close second.

5/5
